These are not DC stores, we are the Washington Redskins why are they all visitihg Virgina Stores. This is not fair to the fans that actually live in DC. I love all three of them. Great Guys. But please stop treating DC fans disrepectfully, the Stadium is located in Maryland and Redskins Park is located in Virginia. SMH

More than half of NFL teams do not have a stadium inside the city they represent. This is not unique to the Redskins… If you want to get technical, Washington D.C was once owned by the state of Maryland.
